Yuneec Q500 4K Typhoon Mag Calibration or Compass Calibration and Maiden Flight\r
Also see Flight Modes \r
\r
We learn how to do the dance of calibration and then take the Typhoon on its Maiden flight. We found the Typhoon to be quiet and easy to fly but not as fast as the DJI Phanton 4. The 4K camera has a steady and beautiful video image. Surprising the battery is only 3s but can be fitted with a 7500mah for long flight times. \r

The case provides easy travel with style, while ensuring equipment is secure and locked up all in one place. Whether you are on the road or on the fly, the case allows you to venture into your world, capturing every moment along the way.\r

Battery\r
The TYPHOON Q500 4K comes with a 6300mAh 3S 11V LiPo battery, allowing for an extended flight time. The sleek pop-open compartment allows you to quickly and effortlessly slide in and swap batteries for even more flight time.\r
\r
** NOTICE: It has come to our attention that during manufuring we mislabeled the flight battery (YUNQ500105) for the Yuneec Q500. All first-run batteries have a label that states 5400mAh when the battery is ually a 6300mAh capacity pack. There is no need to worry as there have been no changes made to the Q500 battery and it has always been 6300mAh.\r
\r
25-Minute Flight Time\r
Made by experts in electric propulsion and electric aviation, the Yuneec Typhoon Q500 4K comes with a 6300mAh 3S 11.1V LiPo battery, giving users a superior flight time of up to 25 minutes.\r

Move. Capture. Create.\r
The STEADYGRIP™ CGO3 system combines a 3-axis precision gimbal with Yuneecs 4K Ultra High Definition video camera, allowing you to capture amazing and stable video footage. The camera pitch controller allows precise camera angle control while on-the-go, using a mobile device, with up to a 6.4-inch display.\r

Follow Me\r
When Follow Me is enabled, the aircraft is leashed to the pilot, who is controlling the ST10+ location. With this feature, flying and capturing video following the pilot is easy, flexible and intuitive.\r
\r
Watch Me\r
When Watch Me is enabled, the 4K camera stays pointed at the pilot, holding the ST10+, in focus and in frame, no matter which way the drone is maneuvered.\r
\r
Dynamic Return Home\r
Switch to Home Mode, and the Typhoon will fly back towards the location of the pilot holding the ST10+, and will automatically land within 13 to 26 feet (4 to 8 meters) of the pilot.\r
\r
